Doesn't declare all its dependencies

This explains the travis failures I'm seeing in BreadBoard, like https://travis-ci.org/stevan/BreadBoard/jobs/157500790

You're missing Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::ReportPrereqs and maybe more.

I'd patch this but I can't figure out out how your bundle works. The bundle repo itself doesn't have a dist.ini file, but you've checked in a bunch of files generated by dzil! I am so confused.

You are looking at the releases branch, which is the branch that matches what is being released to CPAN. What you want to checkout is master, which is the working branch, with the dist.ini and all that jazz.

Ah, I see. It's a bit weird to have that be the default branch I see on GitHub. I'd suggest doing master like most other repos. I didn't even think to check if I wasn't looking at master. Anyway, the missing prereqs are still a thing. You might want to consider using AutoPrereqs. I find it way easier than maintaining a huge list by hand.

I actually thought about it (I know, shocking), and I think having the
'release' branch as the facing one being the most sensed. There are a
few reasons for that.

• For every person confused by the lack of dist.ini in releases, there
  are 10 peeps going "this is not like the code on CPAN at all, what is
  going on?" or, most typically, "Dzilla? OMG, no, no, for the love of God
  noooooo".
• One of the things that my dzil config does is to create the README.mkd
  for the main github project page.
• Allows to do installs via cpanm git://github.com/yanick/whatev.git

|AutoPrereqs|. I find it /way/ easier than maintaining a huge list by hand.

I usually do. In this case I went for the manual because somebody asked
me a while ago not to hard require dependencies such that they can do

[@Filter]
-bundle=YANICK
-remove=Sumfin

but I should be able to jerryrig something there. Gimme a few hours.

Well, this is a dzil bundle, so I think most folks would expect to find a dist.ini in the tree.

That said, I agree that this can be a problem, which is why I just have dzil check all these files right back into master after a release. It's a little less clean, but it's much simpler, and should satisfy all the constituencies.
